- Summary:
-
This publication discusses the development and use of an Educational Needs Projection (ENP) model designed to estimate the number of students "who have difficulty with instruction in English" in the Houston Independent School District. Unlike a state-mandated program that requires teachers and counselors to identify Limited English-Speaking Ability (LESA) students, the ENP model estimates the number of LESA students from questionnaires completed by a stratified random sample of students' parents. The author describes the sampling procedure, rate of questionnaire return, confidence limits, and planning use of the ENP model and presents a number of statistical tables containing data from a survey that used the ENP model to estimate the number of LESA students in grades 1-3. Also included are tables that present data on LESA students based on teachers' and counselors' evaluations. (JG)
